I've come back to Egypt again & again, because when this region & our world have faced difficult moments, Egypt has consistently been a pillar of multilateralism, working to open space for diplomacy.
At at a time when divisions are deepening, it's critical to keep the channels of diplomacy open.
Watching Egypt regain its political and strategic weight in the region has honestly been a source of pride lately. Thereโs a clear confidence in Cairoโs posture that we havenโt seen in years. Whatever the criticisms, Sisi deserves credit for restoring Egyptโs presence. ๐ช๐ฌ
